The Art of Marriage will be offered in time for Valentine's Day

Couples invited to attend marriage seminar Feb. 7 and 8

Mountain View Community Church invites couples to fall in love again, just in time for Valentine's Day.

The church invites the community to attend The Art of Marriage, a video-driven marriage conference Feb. 7-8., sponsored by FamilyLife.

Lyz Havens and her husband, Tim, have spearheaded the event coordination. She said couples are invited, whether things are flowing smoothly in the marriage or the couple is weathering a storm.

"Just like changing the oil in your car, couples need to work on their marriage, as well," she said.

The Art of Marriage includes six video sessions and a manual that provides couples with projects to help apply the principles taught in each lesson.

"My husband and I went to the Art of Marriage in May, we learned a lot from it," Havens said.

She said couples who are engaged, or considering becoming engaged, also are welcome to attend the event.

"This really lights a fire in a couple," Havens said. "We planned this close to Valentine's Day because giving your wife or husband a Valentine's present, such as going to the Art of Marriage, is so worth it."

During the event, door prizes will be given away, including weekend getaways at resorts in Colorado Springs, Denver and Breckenridge, as well as books and devotionals.

The sessions are from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Feb. 7 and from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Feb. 8 at Mountain View Community Church, 200 Justice Center Road. Childcare is available upon request.
